VIENNA KEPT ALIVE BY HOPES OF BORROWING Promised Credits Acts Like Opiates and Relapses Are Frequent. Special to Irdlana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. BY DOROTHY THOMPSON.. VIENNA, Feb. 7.—Vienna Is like a very sick patient being kept alive by camphor injections in the shape of promise of credits. A week ago there was a promise of an English credit of 2,500,000 pounds, the announcement causing a slight betterment in the kronen. That was followed in two days by the announcement of a proposed French credit of 55,000.000 francs. Now comes the announcement that the Austrian finance minister. Herr Guetler, has obtained from Czecho-Slovafeia an immediate advance of 100,000,000 Czech kronen on a loan of 500,000,000 kronen, or at today’s rate of exchange, $10,000,000. This has caused a further improvement in the kronen, which stands today where it was a month ago, before the January collapse, viz: seven thousand to the dollar. A similar good Impression was caused by the report that President Harding had signed the modified Mellon bill, although the satisfaction was modified by the announcement from London that no definite steps had been taken alont the proposed English loan. Working against the opiate of promised credits are the strikes of rallwaymen In Germany and coal miners in Czecho Slovakia which are holding up the coal supply to Vienna thereby causing industrial depression and domestic discomfort at a period of Intense cold and misery. The Vienna streets are barricaded with snow, for despite the unemployment, the municipality cannot procure shovelers for the worthless money It is able to pay. Yesterday and today the army has been drafted and troops are clearing the streets. The increased note drcnlatlon continues. In November the circulation was 90,000.000,000 kronen. It reached 124,000,000,000 kronen. It reached 124.000.000,000 In December and today it stands 230,000,000. The cost of living, indi hby Index numbers, shows a rise oi per cent in the last month alone. Only the promises of credits spectacularly featured by the whole press, keep the masses from serious demonstrations.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

LAUDS EAGLES’ WAR ACTIVITIES Congressman Morin Guest of Local Lodge. Unstinted praise of the war record of the Fraternal Order of Eagles and of its position on vital economic questions of the day was voiced by John M. Morin of Pittsburgh, member of the National House of Representatives, In a talk at Eagles’ Hall, 43 West Vermont street, last night. “The war record of the Eagles Is the crowning achievement of their Ism,” he said. “Long before the Federal Government or any State government or any other fraternal or other association took action tending toward relief of the dependents of the boys in the Army, the Fraternal Order of Eagles took action. Two weeks after war was declared the grand trustees established the patriotic fund through which SI,OOO has been paid to the dependents of any Eagle sailor or soldier who died from wounds or disease In the war. We have paid SI,OOO each for the death of 1,35 b Eagles whose deaths were due to wounds and exposure." Representative Morin pointed out that the Eagles were the first fraternal order to come out openly and make a fight for the enactment of workmen's compensation and mothers’ pensions laws. He said about a month ago he had prepared and interodueed In the House of Representatives a bill known as “public welfare bilt,’’ the object of which Is to ppend at least $5,000,000,000 In the United States to help solve the unemployment situation by building highways. Improving harbors, erecting public bnlldJngs and developing natural resources. Be was entertained at a dinner at the Jgoosler Athletic Club given by a comjnltte* of the local Eagles lodge.

SAYS STATUTES FORBID MERGER Fred Bates Johnson Holds Utility Deal Improper. The merger of seven Indiana utilities by the Indiana Electric Corporation Is Improper, Fred Bates Johnson, attorney, who opposed the merger before the public service commission, told members of the Seientech Club at their luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. Mr. Johnson said he did not oppose the pub’ic service commission and did not question the Integrity of the members of the '•otn- : mission. “The statutes say clearly that no merger shall be brought about If the resulting securities are In excess of thetr present aggregate as separate plants,” Mr. Johnson said. “In this case the aggregate was two or three times the individual value of the plants, and to avoid application of the particular seetiou of the statute applying to mergers, the consolidation was brought about under another section governing expansion of i properties.’ Mr. Johnson called attention to the difference in character of the plants being merged and questioned the advisability of such a consolidation. He pointed out that because of the difference In character of the problem of making fair rates would be most difficult.
